Could you make one of the APE files available to matt at jriver dot com?  Thanks.

Jamil:
Since this happened so long ago with such an older version, let me see if I can reproduce with a more recent Linux version.

If this issue remains present, I will send a file.

Jamil:
This issue with APE files is resolved under the latest MC26 and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.  MC reads APE files and plays them properly now.

Also, this version has a setting to send native DSD.  I don't recall seeing that in the Windows version.  I like the Linux version better.

Awesome Donkey:
The native DSD option is under MC's Options > Audio > Audio Device > Device Settings > the Output DSD files in native DSD format box. The caveat here is the Linux kernel needs to support DSD for your DAC, if it doesn't you're going to have to use DoP. Also make sure you're using the front: or hw: outputs for your DAC too.

Jamil:
My DAC has common drivers, so I am sure the support is there.  Moving it to an easy-to-find location under Linux is preferred to burying it deep in hidden options.

MC26 under Linux looks much better than that older version I last used.  26 does not yet have HTML support or show Track Info under Playing Now view.  It would be great if HTML was added to MC27.  I display lots of useful info under now playing that MediaCenter, by default, keeps hidden.
